Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?

Projection, properly understood and diagnosed, is the end of religion. We are seeing things that are not there by being coerced into taking everything on faith. "It doesn't exist until you believe it does! Then it becomes an absolute fact like that! It is magical and miraculous and proof that God is REAL!!!)
It is projection.
I ask you to take up the hobby of exploring projection. Read everything the internet has to say about projection. Examine your own projections--How you want to project yourself as being, and how you presume that others are. How you want to be seen and how you see others as being.
I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing.
I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
